I almost missed it myself due to the 3 hour time difference, but thankfully it was repeated 3 hours later. The documentary was very well done. The story was about The African American crew of an artillery battery at the start of the Battle of the Bulge, who courageously held their ground and kept firing until they were down to using rifles against the attacking Germans. One of the survivors who was interviewed said it got down to hand to hand fighting before their commander (who was the only white man) ordered them to surrender in order to save lives. They were taken prisoner by Germans of 1rst SS Panzer, who had great contempt for them due to their race. Eleven of these Black soldiers were eventually beaten and tortured until they died. The bodies were discovered weeks later by a Belgian man who was emotionally shaken by these events and made a memorial for these men on the ground where they died. This happened on the same day as the Malmedy Massacre, but no mention of it was made by the US Army as they compiled the names of the men who were killed during The Bulge. The spot these Heros were murdered and tortured is now a monument of stone with the names of the fallen.
I apologize for my attempt to tell this story by memory, as I may have forgotten much of the details. I hope the show will be repeated soon so you may hear all the important details that I may have omitted, as this show should be seen by all Americans. God Bless the Wereth Eleven, who fought bravely for their country despite the racist conditions they endured...not only by the enemy, but by their own country as well.
